Karac:Novels?And here I thought they were hiring some new artists who would stop drawing all the women with FFF cup sizes and start drawing all the men with giant throbbing hardons under their spandex.

I've read some DC novelizations lately. Countdown was pretty meh, but the Wonder Woman book was decent.

She-Hulk seems to be pandering to women a bit but the Rogue story seems like it could be interesting and fast paced enough to keep me interested while containing enough of a love story to keep the ladies happy

Someone really needs to make a She Hulk TV show. She's a sexy, green giant district attorney who doesn't take guff from no man. You could take any plot. ANY single plot and put it into that format and it would work. OJ trial? A very special She Hulk. Osama Bin Laden raid? Tonight's Extra Patriotic She Hulk. Sex in the City, but with She Hulk.

Yes, because girls can't enjoy normal superhero stories, they need sappy love stories with romance and talking about their feelings and shiat.

She-Hulk awesome, but she's also a more valid case of Single Female Lawyer than Ally McBeal ever was

In the She-Hulk Diaries, Jennifer Walters, aka She Hulk, juggles climbing the corporate ladder by day and battling villains and saving the world by night - all while trying to navigate the dating world to find a Mr. Right who might not mind a sometimes-very big and green girlfriend.

My daughter is 7 and she loves to make little booklets that resemble comics. I was wondering if there is anything targeted to her demo graphic without the skimpy large breasted females. Prefer something more tech and less magic and violence/brute force.

Yeah, I wish they had been trying to reach a female audience 3 years ago when they canceled the MC2 Spider-Girl title after over 100 issues so Joey Q could slap the name on his pet sassy Latina Mary Sue, only to have the book canceled within 8 issues because no one wanted to read about the new character in the first place.

Everyone knows all women are romance accessories and sexual tools. Stories about them that lack any element of romantic or sexual entanglement ring false to readers, making those stories unappealing to women.

I don't understand what they keep going after kids. Kid's don't read comics anymore, I think they make up like less than 20% of the market. Trying to grow that segment is going to be next to impossible - targeting teens and young adults makes more sense to me and they should really just double down on deliver to ipads or other digital devices.

Yep, that's my go-to as well. I've given my (now) nine year old niece a Tiny Titans trade every year for Christmas for the past three years. She reads each one from cover to cover the second she gets it.

/This year my brother in law bought her a bike for Christmas//He specifically asked us to give her the Titans book the night before so she'd actually ride on the bike Christmas morning.

Why do you suppose they cram a useless love story into every superhero story or action movie these days? That's right. For the girls.

Why is it that every time they try to make a superheroine interesting to a female audience, they use this plot:

(Real Name), aka (superhero identity), juggles climbing the (career) ladder by day and battling villains and saving the world by night - all while trying to navigate the dating world to find a Mr. Right who might not mind a (crimefighting/strong/mutant/alien) girlfriend.

Honestly, aren't women insulted that this seems to be the ONLY plot that is ever marketed to them when a studio tries to make a Wonder Woman TV series or "update" a female hero's comic to appeal to a female audience?

They keep using this same lame story, and wonder why more girls don't like superheroes. Maybe it's because the only thing missing from making it totally sexist is "...while totally going shopping!"

In a word? No.

It wasn't men or Marvel that turned Twilight into a goddamn bestseller.

To be fair, this is only part of Marvel's outreach to the female audience. They just put out an all-female superhero team book, <i>Fearless Defenders</i>, this week, and as noted above, <i>Captain Marvel</i> has been out for a while. They're really doing their best this year to bump up their numbers with ladies, and this is just part of it.

The romance novels would be really dumb if they were <i>all</I> they were doing, but it's not.

Love those books. Jester is an awesome character. They need to hurry up and do more. I need my fix.
